    Cool Printers

    I hope this is a simple question!

    I'm dissapointed. That works in Win98 but not in WinNT.
    Please try again.

    I think you'll have a NetworkPrinter installed... that will surely show up as HP LaserJet xy on Server01 ... that can't be renamed, as it *is* the name of the printer.
    If you want to have another printername then, you'll have to get a new printerqueue...

    I really wanted this too at my site (i'm not responsible for the queues), but had no luck thus far... perhaps I can profit from further responses
